Mid Night Factory - One Concept Many Stories.

Story 1
Midnight Factory is facing it problems due to the shortage of ideas and manpower. Furthermore, Midnight Factory is losing many customer as these problem arise, it might even result in closure. The boss of productions Big Fat Giant, lets call it Fat Boss for now, begins to worry and starts to travel to find new toys and product concept. However, the main goal of his is to recruit as many 'talented' ghost as possible.
E.G.G man is what i visualize as the Fat Boss.
''Fat Boss is offering lots of cash and gold in exchange for all 'talents' services. Or else fans of Midnight Factory must be feeling sad seeing their favorite toy and product manufacturer closing down. T.T'' Hence, Fat Boss leave his current crew member and went out to expand his crew. Thus, his journey begins....... BFG / Fat Boss is no longer the musician which lead the children to the factory in this case, but the boss who went out of his comfortable office chair to save his Midnight Factory from being closing down by recruting talen

However i think we can create another character who is a muscian or a
band of characters making a 'orchestra??'. An little idea of mind is that they can act as an alarm clock as they play their guitar and blow their trumpets to wake the children up. As the adults would be deep in sleep and only cute innocent kids can hear the music.

One more little idea is the children we can name it GD, Andy , Javian and Zayne. Which are all our names. Making even us in the storyline. ^.^

As i feel that Midnight Factory should be strictly restricted from outsider, just like the Charlie and Chocolate Factory, while every kids dream to go in to see the toyland.




Story 2

Sitting on the bench seeing the sunset, little girl 'May' (lets call her this for now) wonders where is Midnight Factory located at.
However, whenever she suggest to begins a journey, her teachers and her daddy and mummy will say 'thats nonsense, stop dreaming May'. She felt very sad and depressed.

" To be able to go into the midnight factory has become the dream of all kids. Thus, alot of them had tried to venture to it but could never find it. A girl name 'insert name', had a dream. It was to go into the midnight factory and become a member there. She tried to gather as much information as possible and thus begun her journey to find this midnight factory. "
- Javian's Story.

However, May went out to the dangerous and ugly world meeting many friends ( most are our toy's concept? ) who help her through the difficult journey.
what i imagine?

possibilities making the storyline interesting

1) May might not be a normal girl, she might have certain power or certain talent or she might be a robot in disguise whereby she don't even know herself. I think its even better she is even the main concept in MidNight Factory, something like Claymore, a failed experiment. She is design as a robot who befriend with normal human .Her main Hence, this is also the reason why her family against her when she wanted to start the journey.

I think May as a normal girl is pretty boring, there must be something unique in her to be out main character. Just a little opinion of mine. :D



Crossover of Stories
We can crossover story 1 and story 2 after several episode, by making the Fat Boss meeting May.

If we uses the concept of May is a half human robot who is make in MidNight Factory, there can be more story towards it.

Fat Boss might start his adventure with his recruited members to pursue May, making Fat Boss as a villian in the story. Hence, toys who are evil and horror humour can be under him.

The reason might be being May was stolen years ago as she might destroy the world with her destrustive power?? or maybe she was stolen by the Midnight Factory rival?? but let not complicate the storyline. :D

While May and her friends started to run away from the clutch of Fat Boss, but she still want to go to Midnight Factory to find out who is she? The design of her friends under her can be innocent cute powerless yet they are the good toys??



I think circus and even orchestra toy band is a good concept and it can also be use as a story, but we need to package our story and plan it. There can be also trival story like the crew in Midnight Factory start partying after Fat Boss left the Factory!
